Hi, I have a strange issue with Newspaper theme – when I use WPBakery page builder on blog posts, the layout breaks and the part of the post built with the builder looks like ‘full width’ even with sidebar layouts. It looks like that:

In this case, smart list post layout was used.
This one here – just a row and a text block in it:

This one here: just a try to use the two-column layout in the builder, which is a disaster:

On this full-width page I have another issue – when I try to use the 4-column layout in the builder, the page breaks and each block becomes 100% width, so I end up with one long column of images.

Currently, 3 column layout used and it works:

I have used WPBakery builder with other themes on many occasions and have never had issues like that – it usually is quite good at fitting things into any page and responsive. So I am at a complete loss.
I tried to deactivate all 3rd party plugins, but it didn’t help, so it’s definitely not a plugin conflict story.
I have the latest versions of WordPress and Newspaper installed.
And finally, I bought the license for Newspaper for my work project in October this year, but can not either register on the forum with the purchase code or add the code to my account – the system says the code is used with some other account.
So I am writing using my personal account that says that support for my item expired. However, I do have a valid for support theme and the purchase code for the site with issues described above.
Any help would be priceless!
Hello,
It seems you missed this very important part of the documentation regarding visual composer: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
Please do not use it on posts and please do not use other column layouts besides the ones mentioned in the guide.
Thank you!
That’s a really strange limitation because VC works just fine with posts in other themes. So I know for sure that the builder itself can do what I need it to do as long as I am within proper column number limits – I mean, I can easily divide a post into 6, 4, 3, 2 columns and do other combinations like 1\3+2\3 without any problems.
Is it possible to add it to features request?
Hello,
Unfortunately that is the way VC was implemented into our theme and the only way it’s meant to be used. We will be adding no more features to VC from now on as we are developing our own page builder. Tagdiv composer will receive lots of new cool features inculding multiple column layouts which is lacking at the moment.
Thank you!
